Abstract

This study aims to identify the types of phobias and factors that trigger their emergence in children with special needs who have hearing impairments at SKH Bina Citra Anak. Deaf children have limitations in understanding auditory information and expressing emotions, making them more prone to excessive fear responses. This study used a descriptive qualitative method through in-depth interviews and observations of four children with different special needs characteristics. The results showed several forms of phobia, such as fear of the dark, fear of heights, and specific phobias of certain foods. The triggering factors included traumatic experiences, sensory sensitivity, medical conditions, and communication barriers that made it difficult for children to understand and manage their fears. When phobias are triggered, children show reactions such as panic, crying, avoidance, or physical responses such as vomiting and cold sweats. Teachers apply a gradual approach, emotional support, and adjustments to the learning environment to help children face their fears. These findings emphasize the importance of early detection and appropriate support strategies to support the emotional development of children with special needs.

Abstract

Drug abuse is a problem that impacts physical, psychological, and social health and therefore requires treatment through rehabilitation. This study aims to describe the role of nurses in the rehabilitation process of drug users at the Dhira Suman Tritoha Foundation. The method used was a qualitative case study design through in-depth interviews with three nurses and non-participatory observation of rehabilitation services. The results indicate that nurses play a crucial role in monitoring physical conditions, administering medication, managing withdrawal symptoms, therapeutic communication, emotional support, and facilitating psychosocial and spiritual therapy. Based on thematic analysis, four main themes emerged: (1) medical-physical role, (2) psychosocial role, (3) spiritual facilitation role, and (4) challenges in nursing care. Nurses also help build patient motivation through cognitive-behavioral approaches and support behavioral change during the recovery process. Challenges faced include patient non-compliance, resistance to treatment, and limited resources. Overall, nurses contribute significantly to the success of rehabilitation through their holistic, patient-oriented role. These findings emphasize the importance of strengthening nurses' competencies in addiction nursing and providing adequate institutional support.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the learning behavior and expressions of children with autism during learning activities and interactions in the non-formal Widya Wicara educational environment. The research subject was one child with autism with one companion as the main informant. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach through direct observations and structured interviews lasting 45 minutes with the companion. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman descriptive analysis technique which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the learning behavior of children with autism is strongly influenced by rapid mood swings and sensory sensitivity to the surrounding environment. Children tend to have difficulty maintaining focus and only respond to instructions or greetings when in a stable emotional state. When showing negative expressions such as rejection or tantrums, companions need to provide flexible responses and adapt to the children's needs to prevent emotional escalation. The non-formal educational environment provides a more conducive, flexible space and does not demand the achievement of specific academic targets, so children can learn and interact at their own pace, comfort, and readiness. Thus, non-formal learning is an effective approach in supporting the development of behavior, social interaction, and learning expressions of children with autism.
